This is likely my overall favorite scent from A&E. Its so well blended that you dont easily pick out scent notes. But it is all there, just as described. Tobacco, amber, vanilla, a little wood. Its not a summer scent for daytime. But if a cooler night or any of the other seasons, and youll reach for this every time. And the soap base? You can argue this one is a little better than that one but all of the A&E bases stand on their own. Its hard to say one is better than the other, just a little different. You cant miss.
A wonderfully rich and warm fragrance in the best vegan base available, in my opinion!
Very rich lather!
My second soap from AE. Once again, great!
It was a nice scent.
I love everything about this soap! The performance is spectacular...the scent is spicy in a soft kind of way...I am equally impressed with the matching post shave lotion. The cushion, slickness and glide are as good as they come. As a bonus - the glass jar- A great presentation for a well made product. A&E makes some of-if not- the best soap in the business!
Soap is absolutely fantastic, the scent is very powerful in the best way. Left my skin clean and moisturised and it will be a regular part of my routine going forward!
Superb shave. Superb scent!
The Barbiere di Famiglia Timbuktu shave soap has quickly become one of my top 5 favorite scents. Every time I walk by my shave den, I can't resist stopping to open the container and take a big smell or two. I simply can't get enough of this incredible aroma. The scent notes are a perfect blend of sophistication and freshness, making it a standout in my collection.
Just like all of Peter's soaps, the lather and post-shave feel of this vegan-based soap are unparalleled. The rich, creamy lather provides an exceptionally smooth shave, and the post-shave feel leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized. The scent lingers pleasantly, enhancing the overall shaving experience.
If you're looking for a shave soap that combines an amazing scent with top-notch performance, the TBarbiere di Famiiglia Timbuktu shave soap is the one to try. I highly recommend it!
A truly adventurous scent that transports you to the heart of Africa! The rich, earthy and exotic fragrance makes for an invigorating shave. The lather is dense and offers fantastic razor glide with superior post-shave hydration. If youre looking for a unique, bold shaving soap, Timbuktu is an absolute winner.
The honey, tobacco and wood are the notes the pop to my nose the most. this is another banger of a tobacco scent that peter has created. and if i'm not mistaken is also one of peters favorite scent notes to use. of course there is no need to worry about this being a vegan base! VR2 is one of my favorite bases for extra slickness and cushion.
awesome!
